Experience ChatGPT's Advanced Voice Mode Now Available on Web
If you're someone who leans on ChatGPT to streamline your daily tasks, chances are you've got a tab open with the chatbot on your desktop all the time. Now, imagine having the ability to tap into OpenAI's Advanced Voice Mode directly from your desktop. Trust me, it's something you'll want to check out.
Also: Google's Gemini Advanced gets a very useful ChatGPT feature - but how does it compare?
On Tuesday, OpenAI made waves with an announcement on X that Advanced Voice Mode is now rolling out on the web. This move expands the reach of the voice assistant beyond just desktop and mobile apps, making it more accessible than ever. You no longer need to download an app to dive in.
Rolling out starting today, you can ask Gemini Advanced to remember your interests and preferences for more helpful, relevant responses. Easily view, edit, or delete any information you've shared, and see when it’s used.

What is Advanced Voice Mode?
Advanced Voice Mode is OpenAI's AI-powered voice assistant that sets itself apart by allowing interruptions, engaging in multi-turn conversations, and even responding to user emotions. This creates a conversational experience that feels more intuitive and genuinely helpful. It tackles a common issue with other voice assistants that often struggle to keep up with what's being said.
Although it might sound like something out of a sci-fi movie, my personal experience with Advanced Voice Mode has shown it's adept at handling long conversations and understanding my train of thought, even when it's a bit all over the place. You can use it for fun stuff like chatting about your day, playing trivia, or simply talking about yourself. But don't forget, it's just as handy for practical tasks as any regular voice assistant.

Subscription Requirements
There's a catch, though. Even with the expanded availability, you'll need a ChatGPT Plus subscription to use Advanced Voice Mode, which will set you back $20 a month. If you're a die-hard ChatGPT user, the upgrade might be worth it. It comes with a bunch of other perks, like access to all the latest OpenAI models, including o1-preview, five times more messages for GPT-4o, image generation, and more.
Limitations
One thing to note is that you still won't be able to use Voice Mode's multimodal features, such as helping with content on your screen or using your phone's camera as context for responses. OpenAI hasn't given us a release date for these capabilities yet, so we'll have to wait and see.

Wow, voice mode on web sounds cool! I’m curious if it’s as smooth as they claim or just another overhyped feature. Gotta try it out! 😎
